October 29, 2020 WHICH HALLOWEEN PARTY SHOULD I GO TO? Dear Nikki, I’ve got friends from my soccer team and from school. Each group is asking me to have a Halloween party with then by Zoom. Normally I would say YES to both, but here’s the problem—they’re two separate parties that are happening at the SAME exact time! I love hanging out with both groups, but I don’t know which party to choose. Plus I don’t want to hurt anyone’s feelings! What should I do?!Horrible Halloween Hang-Up Hi Horrible Halloween Hang-Up, I love Halloween too, and I totally get why this is a tough situation for you! Last year, Madame Bri-Bri tried to make me choose between having a Halloween party with HER or Miss Penelope (Yeah, seriously. That conversation was NOT the most fun start to my Halloween). I’m guessing you and your teammates have become great friends during practices and games. Being part of a team is really special, isn’t it? So YES, hanging with them on Halloween sounds awesome! (By the way, did you know that there’s a book series about soccer called The Kicks that’s written by a real-life soccer player on the USA National Team named Alex Morgan? You might want to check it out!) On the other hand, hanging with your friends from school sounds SUPER fun too! And since you may spend TONS of time with your soccer friends during practices and games, maybe it would be fun to hang out with them for a change. Okay, my overall advice is to consider the following things: Try going to BOTH parties!😀 Not at the same time, of course, since that would be REALLY tricky (and totally awkward). But try Zooming with one group of friends and then stop and Zoom with the other. Just make sure that you’re setting enough time aside for both parties.Is the party with your soccer friends open to everyone, or just members of your team? If it’s open to everyone, then maybe you could include your friends from school in on the fun! Or, try the other way around—see if you can invite your soccer friends to the party that your school friends are having. That way, ALL of your friends get included and nobody’s feelings get hurt! And hey, the more the merrier, right?!The third point is that sometimes, parties are only for a particular group, team or club and guests aren’t allowed. If that’s the case, then try my first suggestion which is to hang out at both. Or just let one group of friends know that you look forward to hanging out with them after the party or on another day. Again, I think you’re a really great friend and it’s a GOOD thing that you have so many people who want to spend time with you. I think whatever choice you make will be the right one! That’s all the advice I’ve got for today! I hope you have a Happy Halloween 😀!! Okay, readers, your time to chime in—have you ever been invited to two parties that were happening at the SAME exact time? What did you do about it? Also, just out of curiosity—if you’re dressing up for Halloween this year, what’s your costume? Tell us all about it in the comments!
Anonymous says November 20, 2020 at 8:35 am I was a witch this year also the week before Halloween I went to a Harry Potter birthday party where I dressed as a witch. I had gotten SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO much candy that I had to put candy in my bag (duh),my little kitty purse (which,btw,was bulging),AND my WITCH HAT! That happens every year for me,but I don’t always have enough Reeses.
Target teen says November 20, 2020 at 7:18 am good advice… that sometimes happens between my friends at school and my Softball team. They just can’t get along with one another…

Galaxy_Luna Girl says November 18, 2020 at 11:27 am Hey Friendship Heartbreak, OMG!! Gurl I’ve had the same problem!! I just tried my best to ignore it but noo! It happened when I was in 1st grade but now that I am little big I am defending myself and finally transferred my school with my BFF so the thing you should do is- 1. Try talking with your BFF about the problem If you tell your BFF she will totally believe you so she will try her best to ignore the girl. If not Plan B 2. Try making a new friend and try spending time with her If Plan A didn’t work try to make a new friend and spend time with her I am not telling to not ruin your friendship but if your BFF is really in your side she will try to come in with you guys. I hope this helps… -Galaxy_Luna Girl

Seasoned sister says November 18, 2020 at 6:03 pm Just let the sister bother you. She will get tired of it, and if you don’t give her attention she will just leave. If you give her a reaction, she will keep bothering you.
Happy purple DORK says November 19, 2020 at 2:35 am I’ll give you an advice it usually works for me Just give her what she wants if it isn’t crazy stuff and then you hide in your own room and when your parents come you just talk to them that is always easy for me! So if she wants play dates with her friends you have to make a deal with her so she won’t disturb you Hope this finds you well and helps you
areal says November 19, 2020 at 6:29 am maybe u can teach her a lesson by doing something like pranks or u can just give her tough challenges like if u win in this challenge then i will listen to u for one week and if u loose u have to leave me alone for like one week. to rainbow crystal is awsome

I LOVE Elena Of Avalor! says November 17, 2020 at 11:12 am I think that you should TOTALLY tell your friends what’s going on so that you can reach a fair consensus!
